Studies on the Classification Chracteristic of Lawn Weeds

잔디밭 잡초의 분류학적 특성에 관한 연구

This study was carried out to investigate the classification and the growing charicteristics of weed species in a newly formed lawngrass land. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1)Weed population in a newly formed lawn field consisted of 30% of Gramineae, 15% of Compositae, and 12% of Leguminosae family. 2)Percentage of weed emergence between April and May was 39.4%. The same amount of weed emergence was observed at the period of September and October, where as the percentage was 21.2% at the period of March and April. 3)The population ratio of flowering date of weed species was in order of 48.5% July and August, 30.3% in May and July, 12.1% in March and April, and 9.1% in September and October. 4)Weed classification by life cycle showed 39.4% of biennials, 33.3% of annuals, and 27.3% of perennials. 5)Weed species were grouped according to the plant height. The ratios of each group were 33.3% of 20~40cm group, 27.3% of 40~60cm group, 24.2% of shorter than 20cm group, and 15.2% of taller than 60cm group.
